Carlisle Castle Hotel
Carlisle Castle Hotel is a casual, local-style pub with a relaxed feel. It's close to Camperdown Memorial Rest Park, making it an easy stop before or after a walk with your dog.
There's an outdoor beer garden that's undercover and offers shade, though it can double as a smoking area at times. The overall setup is simple but works well for a laid-back visit.

What people say
Traditional Sydney inner city pub. Feel relaxed and comfortable with fellow drinkers
Always a delight to have a meal here, the staff are lovely, we get served promptly, the portions are large, delicious and reasonably priced. No Christmas music in December? Sign me up!
I had a nice time here at the Carlisle Castle Hotel. The environment was chill and cozy, perfect for a Monday night. Great and delicious dinner😁
Carlisle has, hands down, the greatest nachos in Sydney. Anil is the head chef and he’s the heart of the Carlisle - the rest of the staff are fantastic too. Food is supreme and vibes are awesome, the whole pub is 10/10
Had a wonderful lunch here yesterday, great food, fabulous friendly staff. Love the character of the front bar. Definitely worth a visit.
